Welcome to MetrohmInspired by the fathers of techno

A French techno label that has never asked anyone's permission. Started in 2015 by Tevatron, who still picks every record and decides the running order himself.

Jazz in
the Machine

Tevatron feat. Ana Chron · limited vinyl and digital

Four tracks that refuse to choose between a groove you feel in your chest and a structure you could draw on paper. Analog sequences that loop until you stop counting. Basslines that sit low and stay there. And somewhere in the machinery, a jazz phrasing that has no business being here and works anyway.

And a voice. Ana Chron, built by the label, is not human and does not pretend to be. She comes in broken, filtered, half present, then disappears. Laurent Garnier put the record straight onto his USB keys.

  1. 1 Soul Frequency (feat. Ana Chron)
  2. 2 End Of Cycle
  3. 3 Jazz In The Machine
  4. 4 Strings Of The City

What the
floor says

Four thousand promos go out with each record. What comes back is not a press release, it is DJs typing fast between two gigs. We publish it as written, spelling and all, the sevens as well as the tens. A label that only shows its ten out of tens is telling you something about itself.

Tevatron in the studio
The man who created the label

Tevatron

Metrohm exists because one man got tired of waiting. Steve Destailleur, who records as Tevatron, started the label in 2015 and never handed the keys to anyone. He listens to the demos. He picks the artists. He decides which track opens a compilation and which one closes it. There is no A&R department, no committee. There is him and a pair of monitors.

He started DJing in Lille at the end of the 1980s and put out his first 12" in 1994 on Peek-A-Boo Records. Around twenty EPs since, under Steve D, Kosmik Nation, Brain Attack, OSC and Dr Noise, on Intec (Carl Cox), Recycled Loops (Umek), Turbo, Eskimo Recordings and Re-load. Ivan Smagghe picked his track Monochromatik for the Death Disco compilation. He played the Rex Club, Fuse, I Love Techno, Kozzmozz.

Then a break through the 2000s. Metrohm came out of his return, in 2015, so he could release the Detroit-rooted techno he grew up on, on his own terms.

“This artist makes Detroit techno and his music drives me a little crazy. It's exactly everything I love!” Laurent Garnier, on his radio show It Is What It Is

About
Metrohm

The reference is Detroit. Atkins, May, Underground Resistance, the idea that a machine can carry soul rather than just keep time. Metrohm does not copy that. What comes out is warm melancholic melodies laid over cold sequences, deep basslines, and rhythms with nothing spare on them. Music for dark rooms and serious sound systems, for the hour when a set stops being a set.

Supported and played by Laurent Garnier, Richie Hawtin, LTJ Bukem, Derrick May, Ben Sims, Colin Dale, Luke Slater, Marco Carola, Cristian Varela, Titonton Duvante, DJ Bone, Jack de Marseille, and Mark Flash and Buzz Goree of Underground Resistance. Plus Ian O'Donovan, Michel de Hey, Paul Nazca, Remy Unger, Satoshi Fumi, Fabrice Lig, Juan Moreno and Jean Jerome of Radio FG. Read the feedback.
